Your local publican

Kelley Tantau Reporter from Hamilton Press

Hi neighbours! This summer I'm tracking down a local pub to write a profile for Hamilton Press. Do you have any favourite bars, taverns or alehouses that can tell a good story? Maybe the pub is haunted? Has it hosted famous people? Drop your suggestions in the comment section below or email me… View moreHi neighbours!

We would like to hold two garage sales in February to coincide with the student flat influx. Do have a space we can use? It would need to be in Hamilton, be close to or visible from the road (ie not down an alleyway and have plenty of nearby parking. On the Friday we would lay sheets over nay of your articles left in the garage, bring and lay out boxes and tables. On the Saturday and Sunday we would man the garage from 5.30-3.00pm. On the Sunday afternoon and Monday morning we would re-pack and remove all boxes and tables. If you can let us use such a space, you would be helping us pay the Registered Music Therapists who work with patients in the residential dementia care facilities we serve. For details of our work, see out website, Facebook page or the attached copy of our latest newsletter. If you can help, phone Kath: 021 08187218.

Showcasing the love of handmade crafts, upcycled crafts and creations. There will also be baking/food stalls on the day.
When you buy something from a crafter, you're buying more than an object. You're buying hundreds of hours of errors and experimentation. You're buying years of frustration and moments of pure joy. You're not buying just one thing, you are buying a piece of a heart, a piece of a soul, a small piece, of someone else's life.
This extravaganza is showing the smaller people who have a love and passion for arts and crafts along with good old homemade baking and food.
18 November at 10am - 2pm at the Western Community Centre
